Calcium: 99% of the calcium in the body is involved in maintaining the structure
and density of bones and teeth. The remaining 1% has numerous important
functions including: muscle contraction, blood clotting, nerve conduction, and
blood pressure regulation. Calcium citrate is a highly soluble, bioavailable form
of supplemental calcium designed to support total body health.

Magnesium: is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body and plays many
essential roles. Magnesium is necessary for over 300 biochemical reactions.
Its functions include: maintaining normal nerve and muscle function, blood
sugar metabolism, supporting heart rhythm, and energy production. In
addition, 50% of the body?s magnesium stores can be found within the bone.
Magnesium influences calcium metabolism via increasing absorption and bone
response. Studies have shown that bone density is significantly improved in
post-menopausal women with increased intake of magnesium.
